The National Archives in Washington D.C. show that Henry E.T. Dormany was
enlisted at Brunswick,GA on May 11, 1962 by a Capt. Dent for the "period
of the War". Henry was paid at various times the sum of $24.40 for the "use
and risk" of his horse for two month periods. Henry was absent on
furlough and left 25 April 1863 to return on 10 May 1863 and again
on Dec. 25 1863 for ten days.

Henry E.T. was listed on the muster rolls as a Private from May 11, 1862
until May-June 1864 as this was the end of his listing in the muster rolls. It
did not state what happened to him and why or when his service terminated. However in the book "Marriages and Obituaries from the Macon Messenger 1818-1865" a listing for H.E.T. Dominy as being buried in the "Old City Cemetery" and listed death date as Oct. 4, 1864 and that he was in the 4th Georgia Calvary. Research further found that the soldiers buried around Macon were reinterred under the leadership of a Mrs. Hardeman before the 1st Confederate Memorial Day held in 1866 to Rosehill Cemetery. On the tombstone, his name is spelled H.E.T. Downing - the "n's" are both backwards and the "M' is upside down. In the Macon Telegraph article, his name is spelled "Dominy". He is buried in Row 2 #40 in "soldiers square".
